Recently, Kate Hudson told some amazing stories about her dad, Bill Hudson, which she picked up from Elton John. Kate informed me in a conversation at The Grammy Museum that Elton John regularly told her unusual tales about her dad’s early years.
Bill Hudson was a guitarist living with Elton John in the 1970s. Elton would tell Kate the bizarre events they had experienced. Among the strange observations Elton made was Bill’s regular predilection for nudity!
Kate also spoke of her relationship with her father. She said it was tough as Goldie Hawn, her mother, was away much of the time and he wasn’t home either. Kate said she still loves her dad and tries not to examine their past issues too much.
Kate’s stories help us to see her family’s past and underline how even well-known families go through ups and downs. She is quite good at sharing these private events with the audience.
